OP - are you my twin ? No-one else I know knows what I am on about or uses these, I've had a little teapot shaped bowl thingy for my spoons for years and mostly my mother used them for the actual teabags (and made a right mess!) and chucks the spoon in the bottom of the sink!
Sevensilverrings ... yes please, add me too if you decide to make up an etsy shop, I'd be very interested in some pottery bits, that blue glaze is just perfect for us
